Police Seek Tips In Liquor Store Murder

Southfield police are stepping up their investigation into the fatal shooting of a liquor store owner. On October 6th at 4 p.m., 48-year old Mazim Khomorro was gunned down outside of Cronin’s Liquor Store on Northwestern Highway near Franklin Road.

Southfield Police Chief Joseph Thomas said they believe the shooter may have been driving a black GMC Envoy. Thomas told reporters Thursday that they are looking for any leads.

“We’ve got reason to belive that somebody very close to the victim, somebody that knows the victim well — somebody that knows the store operation well, knows something about this,” Thomas said.

The shooter, who police believe may have been waiting outside for the victim for more than an hour, fatally shot Khomorro while he was taking out the trash.
